Hi all, 

Another (hopefully quick) question... 

When I generate HTML from XML using XSL and XT, empty HTML elements such as 

<script language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/revised.js"></script>

as part of a template, result in 

<script language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/revised.js"/>

in the final HTML output. However, IE4 chokes on this; I suppose it requires
the </script>. How can I prevent XT from returning an XML conforming empty
element, and instead, have it return a <script></script>? 

Linda
